What can be done to stop flea bites from ruining my skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flea bites: You can use 1% Hydrocortisone on the bites or use antihistamines locally. Avoid scratching. However the bigger issue is that you must get rid of the fleas. This can be very difficult so many people elect to hire a pest control professional.
